Monday Inspiration

Mondays are always a drag. After a lovely weekend of catching up with friends & relaxing, there's nothing worst than having to get out of bed at 6am to get to class on time. Everything seems stressful - choosing what to wear, being stuck in traffic, and trying to listen in class when I'd much rather still be asleep in bed. I always need a little extra motivation to get back into the swing of things at the beginning of the week. 

Here are my inspirational picks for today:

The Denim Shirt:

Bella 185

Perfect for the spring months! I'm still on the hunt for the perfect one.


Valentino Red Top

Net-a-porter
Casual with a hint of tulle to add some glamour!


Mary-Kate Olsen's Kimono Ensemble:

Olsens Anonymous

I just adore her style. She is so adventurous, original & theatrical. I love that she wears what she feels like and takes risks, rather than playing it safe. The outfit is amazing, well accessorised, except for the white bag (I don't think it goes). She just knows how to put an amazing outfit together, which despite being out-there still has a touch of elegance by adding items like a simple Louboutin shoe . Her wavy hair is gorgeous in this!


Eat, Pray, Love Film

I've heard the book this film is based on is fantastic. I've never gotten round to reading it, but I'm very keen to check out the film when it gets released here in Australia on October 7. Julia Roberts is such a fantastic actress so I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

David Jones Spring/Summer Launch 2010

Studded Hearts

David Jones is Australia's best luxury department store. Love the nude colour palette. Such a great mix of textures too - tulle, sequins, suede & ruffles. My fav outfit has to be the Alex Perry dress on Samantha Harris - the tulle is to die for. She is so gorgeous - that pout! Fav shoes have to be the perspex Fendi's on Nicole Trufino.

Summer Daydream

Fashion Gone Rogue

Such a pretty photoshoot. I love the loose curls, tulle underlay skirts, florals and espadrilles. It makes me wish that Sydney sunshine would come out, after what seems like weeks of rain and cloudy weather.

Russh Rat Bag

Fashion Gone Rogue

I've been buying and collecting Russh Magazine since mid 2005. The thing I love about Russh is the mixing of chain store, vintage and designer pieces  to create fashion forward, yet original looks. The eclectic, street-style  element of the magazine, sets it apart from the other designer-designer mags.  I'm looking forward to purchasing #34 and flicking through it over a skinny late. Each issue is always filled with lots of inspiring looks and ideas. I'm loving the "Rat Pack" shoot combining tough leather jackets, dreamy tulle, shaggy coats, lace and ribbon to create the ultimate bow-tastic, rock chic look.
